The international litigation practice at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP has wide-ranging capabilities, with extensive knowledge of sovereign litigation, global asset recovery, and international arbitration-related litigation. The firm is widely lauded for its disputes involving sovereign states, handling a range of high-profile matters. ‘Very experienced and pragmatic’ Dennis Hranitzky is a leading figure in this space, splitting his time between the firm’s Salt Lake City and New York offices, with a practice centered on multinational asset recovery and contentious cross-border insolvency matters. He is commended for being ‘strategically very good and easy to work with’ alongside Mark McNeill. In Washington DC, co-managing partner William Burck and Juan Morillo, co-chair of the white collar and corporate investigations department are key to the team, with Morillo representing clients in federal, state, and congressional investigations.
